Karashima Midori 辛島美登里ーHaru wa Tabidachi 春は旅立ち

This is an old song from Karashima Midori (辛島美登里).  It was included on the B side of her single called "Tsubame" (ツバメ), which was released in February 1990.  It's not until November that year for her most famous song, Silent Eve, to debut.  Therefore, this was before her glorious times.  I didn't know this song until I bought her album "Good Afternoon".  Originally, I bought it for the song "Anata no mune no katasumi ni" (あなたの胸の片隅に).  But once I've listened to this song, I fell in love with it.

Hope you enjoy it.


春は旅立ち

曲、詩:辛島美登里

恋の終わりは 旅の始まり
まぶしい風に 目覚めた朝
頬の涙も いつか乾いて
背伸びをしてみる 子供のように
私だけのあなたじゃなく
あなただけの私じゃない
夢はさよならをつれてくるけど
続けて思ったままに私を生きるの
ずっと ずっと ずっと 好きだから
泣いたり 懐かしんだり ありふれたくない
きっと…会いたいの

春の陽ざしに まぎれて歩く
街もかたちを 変えてゆくわ
よく似た人を 見かける度に
時が少しだけ 止まる気がする
私だけのあなたじゃなく
あなただけの私じゃない
それでも一人では生きてゆけない
信じて迷った日にも あなたの生き方
ずっと ずっと ずっと 好きだから
何処かで 愛が待ってる 笑顔見つけたら
きっと…会えるかも

続けて思ったままに私を生きるの
ずっと ずっと ずっと 好きだから
何処かで 愛が待ってる 笑顔見つけたら
きっと…会えるかも

Setting out on a Journey in Spring

Composer, Lyrics: Karashima Midori

The ending of love marks the beginning of a journey
Waking up in a morning amid dazzling wind
Tears on my cheek have dried since
Like a child trying to stretch herself on a tiptoe
You don't only belong to me
Neither do I belong only to you
Unfortunately a dream brings with it departure
I continue living my life thinking about you
Because I've been loving you for a long long long time
Crying, missing our nostalgic past, I don't want to be ordinary
May be…I want to see you

Under the spring sun I'm lost in my foot steps
I seem to have changed even the layout of the streets
Every time I encounter someone who resembles you
For a moment I feel like time has come to a still
You don't only belong to me
Neither do I belong only to you
Even so I cannot go on alone
Even in those days when I feel lost, I believe you're my way of living
Because I've been loving you for a long long long time
Somewhere love is waiting, if I can find my smiles
May be…may be I'll be able to see you

I continue living my life thinking about you
Because I've been loving you for a long long long time
Somewhere love is waiting, if I can find my smiles
May be…may be I'll be able to see you
